⚠️@GotabayaR, his wife Ioma, and security officer Mahinda Ranasinghe all just departed from Katunayake on an Air Force transport plane bound for Male. @GotabayaR Update: Immigration cleared. Plane on the tarmac. SIS providing security. Aircraft is awaiting clearance to take off. There's still a few minutes to stop them if anyone has any ideas.

With the #LKA Twittersphere lit by the latest @nimalhperera corruption scandal it’s important to remember that the investigations & court documents extensively relied upon by @4corners was filed by FCID officers.
They are the unsung heroes of the Lankan scandal du jour. 🧵 From 2015-2019 Rajapaksas & their cronies mercilessly attacked FCID as an unconstitutional police unit conducting politicized corruption investigations. Should have been obvious why. The FCID was following the money and making the Rajapaksa Family & collectors very nervous 1/9

💥Shani Abeysekara's FR is earth shattering. He exposed how far SIS and DMI went to protect Zahran and the NTJ, and the extent to which they tried to keep the CID off their scent. No wonder @GotabayaR wants to silence Shani. He knows too much. Read for yourself 👇 💥 In December 2018, during the 52-day coup when the Rajapaksas ran the MoD (and the NTJ attacks began), SIS and DMI planted evidence and falsely framed the LTTE to throw the CID off of the scent of Zahran and the NTJ.

🚨<long...> Defence Ministry has activated Israeli "Pegasus" spyware on all Lankan telecom networks. Same tech used by the Saudis to hack @JeffBezos. This allows them to try hacking into most Android or iOS devices, especially on @dialoglk & @MobitelSriLanka who are cooperating. This is flagrantly illegal under both the Telecommunications Act and Computer Crimes Act but they don't care. The target list includes the phones of lawyers, activists, journalists, judges, some retired cops and even senior Cabinet members seen as disloyal to @GotabayaR.
